IC: Dichotomy's Age of Worms Redux, Part II

[sblock=OC]um.... wtf why did dav leave? and why didn't the completely reasonable and generally cautious Alexis at the VERY least suggest that maybe someone should accompany him? i'm just confused, was there some OC discussion off-board? Are we quitting or something?[/sblock]

Brannak heals himself and Alexis expends great effort to heal the group. Llyr also heals the group some.

Once the group settles in to rest, Dav takes off to begin his search with Alexis accompanying him.

Though it is very tedious and slow, Dav is methodical in the search. He finds dozens of secret doors. He also finds, along the north wall in three distinct places, secret doors that open to short passages that lead directly to normal doors. Upon finding each one, the rogue quickly recloses the secret doors and continues his search. "Best not to go forward until the search is done, right?"

By the time Dav has finished, he is in much need of a bit of sleep, and there is only a relatively short time before Alexis' time to pray and the expected arrival of Llyr's new companion. Fortunately, nothing untoward occurs during the downtime. The group gets some needed rest, the spellcasters regain their spells, and some wild animal wanders in to meet the meditating Llyr with a look of expectation upon its face.

"If only the dumb thing knew that it is likely to be dead inside a day," Dav snickers under his breath, but loudly enough for Llyr to hear.

[sblock=OOC]You are gaining XP during the rest. Alexis and Dav each get 1,200 XP. The rest of you each get 1,350, which bumps you three up to level 4.[/sblock]

As Llyr's prayer begins to wind down to an end, a squat, powerful, wolverine shuffles into the room and look around at the group. As Llyr stands and stretches, he turns to Dav. "You think you would be more respectful of those that repeatedly sacrifice themselves so that you could live. With you around, we are probably lucky that my companions don't understand Common, I wouldn't recommend pissing this one off."

He then rummages through his pack for some rations.
 

"What a strange expression..." Brannak says to Lyr's comment. "Should we dare to peak out into the elevator room, or simply explore the new doors to the north?"

"I'd think that any trouble outside would have shown itself, so we can likely go north without worry of giving our selves away to those in the last temple."
 

"I'll piss ON it if you'd like," Dav offers. "Oh, and it seems to me that YOU are the only one that almost died there."

In response to Brannak, Dav shrugs his shoulders. "You said yourself that it seemed there should be something more to find in here. Well, we know at least three ways to go."
 

Llyr shrugs at Dave, "Feel free, I can't say I have enough control of Bub here to keep him from ripping it off though. I am starting to think I should have left that bolt in your throat and seen how long you would have taken to bleed out, at least you would have been quieter. I suppose you were the only person with a head count remotely similar to Kota's, maybe you actually are more than just a pretty face." The tall man can't help but snicker at his own joke.

"I don't see much sense in peeking out until we know that nothing will sneak up on us from behind." The caster adds to the skald "Should we go in order or start in the middle and work out?"
 

"I thought that Alexis and I had problems with each other. Let's go left to right with the doors. I agree that we should take a peek out into the elevator room first though. We don't need to go through the other doorway. Just make sure that there isn't a small army, waiting for us out there."
 

Alexis stares blankly at the men as they bicker. Shaking her head she chimes in, "Lets take the west most door, and work our way east."

[sblock=oc]Alexis will keep an everburning torch tied to her shield and tail the group.[/sblock]
 

"You two DO have problems you are both just ignoring them... What if there is a small army out there? Then we'll be stuck between a hammer and an anvil. If we take out the hammer first, we will just have to bust through one crowd."[sblock=OC]Llyr will also keep the torch tied to his shield and also stay in the middle with Bub.[/sblock]
